All those whiners wouldn't be whining if there was a burned out shell of a car sitting near every shopping center or bloody bodies laying on the floor of their favorite restaurant. No whining cuz they'd either be crying or dead.

I agree.....I think "the war on terror" or terrorist will be an ongoing thing...just like the "war on drugs" (which we are losing). We cannot eradicate the world of terrorism just like we didn't eradicate the world of Nazi's or Communists...but we CAN make them less effective and we CAN take the fight to THEM so hopefully we don't have another 9/11 or worse....Fortunately we haven't had anything like that happen and I like to think it's because of what we are doing abroad. I honestly feel that IF the terrorist COULD strike here and wreak havoc on the masses they would so I feel that our "war on terror" is a success to some degree. The main terrorist that we deal with on a daily basis is the liberal media and most of the Democratic party. They do more to destroy this country from the inside out than the terrorist are doing.....sometimes I wonder if Osama isn't donating to the Democratic party....
